Priyanka: Nick Jonas is my ultimate shopping buddy

Indian actress Priyanka Chopra Jonas says she’s not much of a shopper as she doesn’t have the patience but her American pop star husband Nick Jonas is the best person to hit the stores with.

Speaking to the Evening Standard newspaper, Priyanka said: “I’m not much of a shopper, I don’t have the patience to go to five different shops. I need it to be made easy for me which happens at Harrods because they have everything under one roof.

“My husband, Nick, he’s the best shopper, the most efficient – and he actually likes it.”

Priyanka tied the knot with Nick back in December 2018 after a whirlwind romance. They had traditional Hindu and Christian ceremonies at the Umaid Bhawan Palace in Jodhpur, India, reports femalefirst.co.uk.

Priyanka has not allowed her career to wane since tying the knot.

After her transatlantic transition from Bollywood to Hollywood, she’s gone on to star in a number of films including the ‘Baywatch’ reboot alongside Zac Efron and Dwayne Johnson, and is currently the lead in Amazon’s spy drama ‘Citadel’ alongside Stanley Tucci.

Priyanka will be returning to the big screens in the third instalment of the eagerly anticipated ‘The Matrix Resurrections’ that will be out in cinemas this week.

Her other off-screen projects included the release of her memoir back in February ‘Unfinished’ which made the ‘New York Times’ Bestselling list.

Priyanka also has her own production company, Purple Pebble Pictures, and her goal is to create as many opportunities for actors of colour as she can.

She said: “My company Purple Pebble Pictures has a first look deal with Amazon, we’re doing really incredible work. I have just forayed as a producer into Broadway with my company.

“I think I’m expanding myself as a producer and creating opportunities for people of colour, for Indians – but for myself too. To be able to give myself the opportunity for parts that may or may not be written for me.”

“Now, not every one of them may go to the Oscars like White Tiger, but the attempt is to be able to create content which has something to say, and yet to put culture and diversity at the forefront. It’s an exciting time.”

After Salman Khan set the tone for the final season of the popular chat show, ‘Koffee With Karan’, beloved couple Vijay Deverakonda and Rashmika Mandanna were seen on the couch together for the second episode.

This marks Rashmika’s debut on the show, whereas VD has already appeared on ‘Koffee With Karan’ with his ‘Liger’ co-star Ananya Panday.

The episode was full of candid revelations by the couple. During the Rapid Fire section of the show, Rashmika was asked by host and filmmaker Karan Johar to choose between her ‘Animal’ co-star Ranbir Kapoor and ‘Pushpa’ co-star Allu Arjun. ‘The Girlfriend’ actor picked the latter.

Later, when Karan asked Vijay who he believes he shares the best on-screen chemistry with, apart from Rashmika, she interjected, saying ‘nobody’. To this, Vijay revealed that his mantra for a happy marriage is simple, ‘Always agree with your wife.’

Making some more exciting disclosures about their personal lives, Vijay and Rashmika shared how she had to ask him 100 times before they finally tied the knot earlier this year.

In the recently released promo, KJo asked Rashmika and VD, “Was there a proposal?” As Rashmika shook her head, Vijay revealed, “She was like, ‘Let’s get married.’ I was like, ‘Okay, you have asked me a 100 times.'”

As Karan confirmed with Rashmika if she really asked the ‘Arjun Reddy’ actor 100 times for marriage, she shared, “I asked him for an entire year.” Vijay then clarified, “I am not an a**hole.”

As they approached the gaming segment of the episode, Vijay called Allu Arjun and asked him to deliver the now-iconic line, “Karan, it’s me”.

After keeping their admirers guessing about their relationship status for a long time, Vijay and Rashmika finally got married on February 26 at ITC Mementos in Udaipur in a traditional ceremony.

However, what caught everyone’s attention was Ranbir’s impromptu singing performance at the pandal. The ‘Rockstar’ actor took to the stage with singer Harshdeep Kaur and crooned the popular song ‘Kabira’ from his 2013 film “Yeh Jawaani Hai Deewani.”

In a video that went viral on social media, Ranbir was seen sharing the stage with Harshdeep Kaur as she sang ‘Kabira’. Holding a microphone, the ‘Barfi’ actor joined her in singing the popular track and even turned the mic towards the audience, encouraging them to sing along.

Videos from the event showed Ranbir dressed in a red-and-gold kurta with white pyjamas as he arrived at the Durga Puja pandal. He offered prayers to Goddess Durga and later greeted the cameras with folded hands while posing for photographs.

This year marked the 80th year of the North Bombay Sarbojanin Durga Puja celebrations, continuing the Mukherjee family’s long-standing tradition of celebrating the festival with devotion and grandeur.

Other celebrities who attended the Durga Puja celebrations included actress Kajol, who arrived at the pandal with her children, Yug and Nysa Devgn. She wore a traditional yellow-orange saree and was seen taking pictures of the idol of Goddess Durga.

Tanishaa Mukerji, veteran actor Jaya Bachchan, and filmmaker Anurag Basu were also present at the celebrations. Jaya and Anurag visited the pandal to offer prayers, while Anurag was seen wearing a blue kurta. Kajol also posed for pictures with Tanishaa and Ayan Mukerji.
